    a bug of gcc, or a bug of mine?

    Hi, all!

    The code below compiled by gcc and icc behaves differently. Could anyone help me to figure the problem?

    Code:
    #include <stdio.h>
    int main(void) {
      int v[2];
      int i;
      v[0] = 10;
      v[1] = 20;
      i = 0;
      if (v[i++] == v[i])
        printf("hello\n");
      return 0;
    }

    Yes, your code is broken.
    Question 3.2
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    Yes, v is quite obviously an array of 2 ints.

"Finding the smallest program that demonstrates the error" is a powerful debugging tool.
